INTRO
C5 C5 D5
C5 C5 D5
C5 C5 D5
Word came through in a letter
C5 C5 D5
One of us changing our minds
C5 C5 D5 F5
You won't need to guess who, since I usually do not send
F5 F5
Letters to me that are mine
C5 G5 D5
Told him I saw this coming
C5 G5 D5
That I'd practically packed up my things
C5 G5 F5 F5
I was glad at the time that I'd said I was fine but
F5 F5
All honesty knows- I wasn't ready, no
C5 C5 C5
And so here we go bluebird
C5 A5 E5
Back to the sky on your own
C5 C5 C5
Oh, let him go bluebird
C5
Ready to fly
C5 C5 G5 D5
You and I, here we go
C5 G5 D5
Here we go
C5 G5 D5
This pair of wings worn and rusted
C5 G5 D5
From too many years by my side
C5 G5
They can carry me swear to be
F5 F5
Sturdy and strong but see
F5 F5
Turning them on still means goodbye
C5 C5 C5
And so here we go bluebird
C5 A5 E5
Gather your strength and rise up
C5 C5 C5
Oh, let him go bluebird
C5 C5 C5 C5
Oh, let him go bluebird
C5 C5 C5
Oh, let him go bluebird
C5 C5
Ready to fly, you and I
C5 C5 D5
Here we go
C5 G5 D5
Here we go
C5 G5 F5 F5 C5
Here we go
